No, you would aim slightly above, because when you throw the spear and it travels through the air it will fall slightly downwards by the time it reaches the fish.

A simple and common technique for accelerating electrons is shown in the figure, where there is a uniform electric field between
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer : 4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Electric field strength, E=2.55\times 10^{4}\ N/C

We know that,

Charge of electron, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

From the definition of electric field, F=qE...............(1)

According to Newton's second law, F = ma..........(2)

From equation (1) and (2)

ma=qE

a=\dfrac{qE}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 2.55\times 10^{4}\ N/C }{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}

a=0.4483\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2

or

a=4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

So, the horizontal component of acceleration of an electron is 4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2.

Hence, it is the required solution.

A train moves with a constant velocity for 15s for 155m. How fast is the train moving?
bonufazy [111]

Answer: 10.3m/s

Explanation:

In theory and for a constant velocity the physics expression states that:

Eq(1):  distance  = velocity times time <=> d = v*t    for v=constant.

If we solve Eq (1) for the velocity (v) we obtain:

Eq(2):  velocity  = distance divided by time <=> v = d/t

Substituting the known values for t=15s and d=155m we get:

v = 155 / 15 <=> v = 10.3

A jetliner is traveling east from Salt Lake City to Washington DC, a distance of 1,850 miles. The jetliner travels at an average
maks197457 [2]
The jetliner is traveling against the wind. The net speed of the jetliner is
590 mph - 36 mph = 554 mph
The time it takes for the jetliner to arrive at the destination is
1850 miles / 554 mph = 3.34 hours

A 0.23 kg ladle sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to one end of a horizontal spring (k = 580 N/m) whose o
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Explanation:

Angular speed of the motion ( SHM )

ω = √k/m

= √(580/.23 )

= 50.20 radian /s

a ) Rate of doing work

= power = force x velocity

At the equilibrium position force becomes zero so

rate of doing work is zero.

b )

If a be the amplitude

1/2 k a² = 170

a = .7655 m

kinetic energy at equilibrium = 1/ 2 m v₀²

1/ 2 m v₀² = 170

.5 x  23  v₀² = 170

v₀ = 3.84 m /s which is the maximum velocity.

Given x = .66 where rate of doing work is to be calculated.

Force at x = ω² x

= 50.20² x .66 =

= 1663.22 N

Velocity v = v₀ √( a² - x² )

= 3.84 √( .7655² - .66 )

= 3.84 x .387

= 1.486 m/s

power = force x velocity

=  1663.22 x 1.486

= 2471.55  W .
